Young inventors from Grades 2-8 came to Maxim Integrated in San Jose on April 14, 2018 from throughout the state of California. They were nominated to attend this state convention by their teachers and classmates – and they came to present their inventions, display their creative and practical solutions to real-life problems, and to be celebrated for their achievements. We are so proud of each and every one of these young inventors. The future is in good hands!
